Opinion: San Jose Water: Your water, our promise: Delivering lead-free H2O to South Bay communities
Every family deserves the peace of mind that comes with clean, lead-free drinking water. At San Jose Water, we are committed to developing a comprehensive inventory of service line materials in our system. Since 2017, we’ve worked alongside industry experts to inspect thousands of lines using a combination of historical records, predictive modeling and field inspections. So, how many lead service lines have we found in the past seven years? Zero. … Now, we’re taking it further to pinpoint exact materials on the customer-owned portion of service lines, where historical records are less complete. Is it copper? Is it plastic?
